TolCon defines the allowable error in satisfying constraints. So, for
bounds, set the lower bound to lb+TolCon, or upper bound to ub-TolCon.
For nonlinear constraints, it depends on the local gradient of your
constraint function, but essentially do the same, set c(x)+TolCon or
some such thing.
This procedure does not necessarily work the way you might expect, which
is why it is not documented, but maybe it will help you.
